A movement has been set on foot for the raising
Of i monument TO Oliver Exams, the inventor of
the high-pressure steam engine. Evans received
from the state OF Maryland, one hundred years
ago a patent on his device. II is now proposed
that as the truth OF history must place his name
on the list OF inventors in his special department
a long way above The names OF Watt and Ste
phensou. and must accord 10 America the credit
OF having produced the author OF the worlds
greatest revolution in practical mechanics, the
capital OF the nation would he proper place for
any sculpture ia his honor. This would be the
more appropriate ia view OF the circumstance
that the District OF Columbia. the site OF that
capital. was in Evans day part of the state
which issued its letters Of protection for his
steam carriage" The IDEA Is good one There
IS abundant room in Statuary hail. ut the Capitol.

DeSoto Democrat.
A few days since Col. Hollingsworth wrote
"A communication to the Shreveport Times in
which he demanded OF ex-senator b. F. Jonas,
that he at once come out and support Gen.
Nichols for Governor under the penalty of
Gel Hoilingsworth opposing him for the Sem

said:

North Louisiana is willing to support Mr..
Jonas if he will align himself with the senti.
ment that opposes tue State ADMINISTRATION
But he must not delay 100 long. If MIR. Jonas
does not shortly tell the people where he
stands l. for one, am for Hon. N. C.. Blan

the position; but ii he aligns himself wit
the fanatics who are trying to put part

Dramatic.

We. regret exceedingly that sickness in
the family of this reporter prevented
his witnessing the presentation of Den
merry and Gorman's stirring drama in a
prologue and four acts entitled "A Celebrat
Case" by the Opelousas Social Club, at Per-
rodln's Hail. on the evening of the 4th of
August, and that an extended notice there
OF cannot be given of it's rendition this week
Snffce it to say, that the amateurs interpret
ed their roles with such splendid histrionic
effect that the entire audience was captivat-
ed, and the universal verdict given "that it
was one OF the most brilliant amateur efforts
ever witnessed in Opelousas." Some said that
the acting equaled that of good professionals,
ana surpassed many who had made the stage
their vocation for years. Yielding to the gen
eral wish of a delighted public, the Opelousas
social Club will repeat the play in short
time. due notice of which will be given. AT
ter the second rendition of the piece we hope
10 be able to give critical and detailed no.
tlce of the performance as an act of simple
justice and encouragement to the talented
amateurs of our town. The following is the
cast of character in the prologue
